Work
with datasets You can import Excel spreadsheets as datasets.
You can code the content manually, or you can speed up the process
by auto coding your dataset based on structure. Refer to About dataset sources
for more information.

Work
with web content You can gather material from the web with
NCapture and import it into your project as a PDF source. Refer to
Import web pages
for more information.

Work
with audio and video files You can import audio and video files
and work with the media. You can transcribe the media in NVivo or
you can import an existing transcript into your audio or video source.
Refer to About
audio and video sources for more information.

Create
memos Create memos to record your thoughts and ideas—you can
link a memo to a source or node. Refer to About
memos for more information.

Create
annotations You can record comments, reminders or observations
about specific content in a documents, PDFs, memos and externals.
Refer to About annotations
for more information.

Create
nodes You can create new nodes in List View and organize them
into hierarchies. You can also turn on node aggregation to gather
all coding references from child nodes at the parent node. Refer to
About nodes for more information.

Coding
You can code to new or existing nodes. You can select content
and then code it using commands on the ribbon, shortcut menus or keyboard
shortcuts. You can also use drag and drop coding or 'in vivo' coding
(make new nodes based on selected text). Refer to About
coding for more information.

Review
the content in a node You can review the content as plain text
and set options that allow you to see the context of the coding references—for
example, see the paragraph surrounding the coded content to help you
understand the context. Refer to Review
the references in a node for more information.

Display
coding stripes You can display
coding stripes in sources and nodes to see how the content has
been coded.

Work
with classifications and attributes You can use node classifications
to record demographic details about the people, places or other 'cases'
in your project. Refer to About
Classifications for more information. You can use source classifications
to record information about the sources in your project.

Work
with sets You can create sets and add items to them. You can
use these sets as the scope for your Text Search or Coding Queries.
Refer to Create
and manage sets for more information.

Run
Coding queries You can explore your coding using a Coding
Query. Coding queries can help you to test ideas, explore patterns
and see connections between the themes, topics, people and places
in your project.

Run
Text Search queries You can find words and phrases and automatically
code content using Text
Search queries and visualize the results as a word tree.

Run
Word Frequency queries You can find the most frequently occurring
words in your content using Word
Frequency queries and visualize the results in a word cloud.

Run
Matrix Coding queries You can cross-tabulate coding intersections
to create a node matrix using Matrix
Coding Queries.
